His plan has worked out brilliantly with many thousands of visitors each year.

By:
Scunthorpe..nice one Orioles.
As mentioned elsewhere the sun is steadily losing mass mainly through its conversion to radiant energy and this is causing the planetary orbits to inflate over time. To counteract the predicted cooling effect due to our increasing distance from the sun (one earth diameter every 4.5 billion years) the American people are helping keep us warm by pumping as much greenhouse gas in to the atmosphere as possible.
